Hera should have divorced Zeus long ago and here's a fun fact she may be the goddess of marriage but in one of her stories she actually almost divorces and Zeus panicked😂
@@bezoticallyyours83 Hillary Killary Clinton never divorced her cheating husband. A woman always gets fringe benefits from marrying a man of power. Hera would have to give those up if she divorced Zeus. It doesn't matter how much power she kept from a divorce. Hera would have lost privilege in the eyes of her followers.
@@72Workershe has her own power she is still a god she was made the goddess of marriage and fertility by Zeus she didn't get the shoes of that rule herself meaning she could give up the title if she chose to leave Zeus
@@dominicadrean2160Zeus made Hera goddess of marriage by marrying her. Hera wouldn't be goddess of marriage any more if she divorced Zeus. Fringe benefits to being married that she would lose. Not to mention many more benefits. Hillary Killary Clinton never divorced her cheating husband. For similar reasons.
I think my first exposure to Greek mythology and seeing most of Greek mythology creatures was from watching the Narnia movies when I was a kid😅 because the author of Narnia CS Lewis like Greek mythology and used a lot of them for his world
It means they have two sets of organs excluding the genitals and the brain, it just doesn't make any sense. Also very weird you never see a centaur female.@@bennyhundo9131
Filipino mythology also have half horse, half man creature. we call it Tikbalang. the difference is it is the other way around. Tikbalang has the head of a horse and a body of a man. according to myths, once you plucked a hair from a Tikbalang and keep possession of it, the Tikbalang will be your loyal servant. apart from that, I don't know nothing more about it.
@@LondonPower not a hero but a myth. Malakas is the version of Adam in Philippine Mythology together with Maganda (Eve). they came from the inside of a bamboo that was struck down by a lightning.
There's also a female version, the *anggitay,* that more closely resembles the centaur. It's said that whenever it rains just lightly enough for the sun to keep shining, a tikbalang is getting married. Tikbalang are known to trick people into getting lost in forests. One way to evade their trickery is to wear your shirt inside-out. 🙂

@@shanchan8247 You in reality just want to be chosen by a beautifull valkyrie ain't it so? Jests to the side in sincerity greek mythology is the best that we europeans produced and have in all of our continental history.
The first Centaurs were probably people riding horses. As the Greek's learned to ride and use horses the myth took on a more mythic embodiment than a real creature.
Possibly, but the Greeks are an Indo-European people, so their ancestors were the ones to learn how to domesticate and ride horses, as well as use wheels. So possibly the myth came before the Greeks existed as a separate group
There is another origin about the centaurs. Zeus was always wandering when he could mate with Aphrodite but couldnt, in one on these ocasion he saw her, he "relieved" himself on the ground, but turn out the precense of Gaia was still in the earth, and a centaur was born. Would be cool if someone write how the hierarchy of Centaurs was; those sons of Cronos, Zeus and Ixion.
This is actually true. Here are the sources. Nonnus, Dionysiaca 5. 611 ff (trans. Rouse) (Greek epic C5th A.D.) : "Not so wild his [Zeus'] desire had been for Kypris (Cypris) [Aphrodite], when craving but not attaining he scattered his seed on the ground, and shot out the hot foam of love self-sown, where in the fruitful land horned Kypros (Cyprus) flourished the two-coloured generation of wild creatures with horns (Pheres) [i.e. Kentauroi (Centaurs)]." Nonnus, Dionysiaca 14. 193 ff : "[Rheia summoned rustic divinities to join the army of Dionysos for his campaign against the Indians :] Another tribe of twiform Kentauroi (Centaurs) was ready, the Kyprioi (Cyprian). One when Kypris (Cypris) [Aphrodite] fled like the wind from the pursuit of her lascivious father [Zeus], that she might not see an unhallowed bedfellow in her own begetter, Zeus the Father gave up the chase and left the union unattempted, because unwilling Aphrodite was too fast and he could not catch her: instead of the Kyprian's bed, he dropt on the ground the love-shower of seed from the generative plow. Gaia (Gaea, the Earth) received Kronion's (Cronion's) fruitful dew, and shot up a strange-looking horned generation." Nonnus, Dionysiaca 32. 65 ff : "I [Zeus] desired the Paphian [Aphrodite], for whose sake I dropt seed in the furrow of the plowland and begat the Kentauroi (Centaurs)."
Absolutely captivating! This video beautifully delves into the mesmerizing world of Greek mythology, shedding light on the incredible and brutal Centaurs. Each tale unfolds with such detail and depth, making it impossible to look away. Kudos to the creators for bringing these legendary creatures to life in such a mesmerizing way!
In my opinion it's possible that the centaurs were mythologized versions of the nomadic indo europeans that migrated half a millennium before Mycenaean culture flourished. Especially Since the indo Europeans had a sky god called dyeus which may be an origin of zeus. The pairing between the king of lapas and the cloud goddess as well as the story between cronis and felera may be how the indo Europeans and nearly neolithic humans culture began to merch with the Indo Europeans tellingsa more peaceful story to explain integration with the local neolithic farmers hinting that Zeus as both their common ancestor. Meanwhile another story showing a more violent story hinting of a forceful take over likely drawn upon by angry nomadic farmers that remained. It may also explain why their isn't any depiction of female centaurs until much later. Indo Europeans nomads were almost entirely consistent of males and came by chariots and already knew how to make bronze tools and used bows and arrows in their assaults.
sergeant: what did you see scout? scout: horsemen! sergeant: you mean a man on a horse? scout: i saw half man half horse. sergeant: my king we are under attack by horsemen! king: you mean men on horseback? scribe: scout reports an attack my men who are horses mythology: centaurs
🤔 . . . What about _Interviews with Monster Girls_ & _Monster Musume_ ‘s approach to such . . . people? If such people existed, even up to today, how would history look? And how would each be utilized to their fullest?
Actually where's Chiron? Chiron was the first ever centaur and the world's best trainer of every Greek hero and heroine. Chiron was also a son of Kronos but he didn't get swallowed
Female depictions and mentionings of cnetaurs only appeared in the 5th century bc likely with the introduction of the scythians who unlike the indo europeans had female warriors which may explain they came to be depicted much later.
some historians believe they were based on the ancient scythian people, the scythian has a horse culture and were known horseman during that time period and they raided territories all over the ancient world including greek territories around thrace.
Ixion and Nephele had a son named Centaurus. He fathered the centaurs on the magnesium mares. Kronos did father Chiron because they were in horse form when he ravished her. He also has 2 twin brothers, the 2 ichthyocentaurs who became pisces.
Werewolves are the true symbol of ferocious bestiality. Dante should have put the Centaurs to guard not the Phlegethon, the Blood River of Violence, but to guard the Styx, the Poison River of Envy (not Wrath, that definitely goes with Heresy) and Sloth.
Check your astrology here. Chances are where Chiron is, his sign, aspects, and other actors nearby will tell a story. A story of the childhood, first wound, often from the Mother. Severity and type depend on the WHOLE chart. Tread lightly.
ixion you should have really tried to win over the goddess Hera instead of being blunt to get her he should have tried offering his service to the Gods willing to do anything for them so he could always stay there( and that's remember Zeus loves his ego he and his worship) and he should have tried getting Aphrodite on his side or at least she would like him enough so as a favor she can let him have one of her son magic arrows and the funny thing is she wouldn't need the context on who it's for😅
@wildmen5025 oh I don't think she would have a help ixion get with Hera that's why I said he should have offered his services to the Gods taking any tasks they wanted Aphrodite would not have helped him but would have possibly giving him an arrow from Eros because of his service to the Gods biggest even Aphrodite can take pity on people or answer faithful servants the Gods ( but just make sure you always honor her for that gift because if you don't she's very vengeful😅 and extremely Petty)
Centaur ….. I keep on seeing them as magical world mystical beings like elves unicorn…. Otherwise I don’t see them as flesh…. I still haven’t received more about them
@@Derm_video Tell me you don't know anything about the Ancient Greek religion without telling me you don't know anything about the Ancient Greek religion
If you're doing a video about Greek mythology, you need to call the greatest hero "Heracles.". You especially should NOT use Heracles and Hercules interchangeably
Actually, no. Most of our audience only knows him as Hercules, and interchanging the names is a way of expanding knowledge about the two translations (Hercules/Heracles). If you look at other videos, we do this with several other gods and characters who are known by different names.
I disagree. Using the names interchangably makes it confusing as to whether you're talking about the same character or not. If you want to make it familiar, then stay with the more familiar name
@@deanalvarado9751 Well, that's the thing about opinions. You are entitled to yours. And we can use Hercules, Heracles, or both if that's our opinion on what's best for our videos. Thank you for sharing your opinions and I hope you enjoy our channel
@@deanalvarado9751 Herakles and Hercules are the same figure. We know this because the Romans worshipped Hercules with Greek rites to acknowledge His heritage as an ethnically Greek man. They understood Him as not a Roman deity but a Greek deity popular in Rome. It's the same guy.
The myth of the centaurs rose from the fear of the nomadic horse archers of the day - the Scythians who were both terrifying and fascinating to the settled Greeks .....
Doesn’t Norse mythology have their own Centaurs called Stalkers, who were worshippers of Skaði, Goddess of the Hunt?? Or is that just in the God of War series??
guess some stererotype of "women cant be savage" or horses due to their muscular forms and... endowment, were seen as inherently masculine could be anything really
Maybe Centour does really exist because. To see is to believe maybe in the Greek period they did really see one or maybe one day we will find a unknown land that everything you feared or idolise exist
0:30 Greeks didn't take the centaur mythology from the Mesopotamians because these creatures actually existed and they've seen them with their eyes. Archeologists found the bones of a centaur outside of a town named Volos.
So we need to have a talk about what a selfless act is. Again. Choosing to die to save yourself from pain is NOT a selfless act. Look at the clues. Who are you saving from pain? Oop.
